Description

Built for residential and commercial distribution, this 20-amp thermal-magnetic device provides essential overload and short-circuit protection. It mounts into standard Murray load centers, serving as a reliable component for 240V circuits like water heaters or baseboard heating. Featuring Insta-Wire connectors for faster installation, it carries HACR and SWD ratings. Note that this legacy Murray design has been officially replaced by the Siemens Q220 for modern panelboards.

Product FAQs

6 answers
What is the Siemens cross-reference for the Murray MP220 circuit breaker?

Siemens acquired Murray and eventually phased out the MP-T product line. While exact MP220 breakers are still sourced for legacy panels, the official Siemens cross-reference and UL-listed replacement for this model is the Q220 (QP series) 20-amp, 2-pole breaker.

Can I install the MP220 in a modern Siemens load center?

The MP220 is specifically designed and UL-listed for legacy Murray load centers. For modern Siemens EQ, PL, or ES series panelboards, use Siemens QP series breakers unless the panel labeling explicitly lists MP-T types as acceptable.

What wire sizes are compatible with the terminal lugs on the MP220?

The lugs accept 14 to 6 AWG copper wire, or 12 to 6 AWG aluminum wire. Always ensure connections are torqued to the manufacturer specifications printed directly on the breaker label to prevent thermal issues.

What types of loads is the MP220 rated to protect?

As a 2-pole, 120/240VAC thermal-magnetic breaker, it is designed to protect 240V dedicated circuits, such as baseboard heaters or small well pumps, as well as 120/240V multi-wire branch circuits requiring 20 amps of overcurrent protection.

Does the standard MP220 provide ground fault or arc fault protection?

No, the standard MP220 provides only thermal-magnetic overcurrent and short-circuit protection. It does not include Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) functionality. If your circuit requires dual-function or GFCI protection, a different breaker type is required.

Does this breaker require a bolted connection to the panel busbar?

No, the MP220 features a plug-in mounting style. It snaps directly onto the busbar of a compatible Murray load center, requiring no bolted connections for the line side.
